SOUTH ISLAND BASSET HOUND CLUB WALK

2007-07-14T19:22:00.000-07:00

On the 19th August Gesina Gregge organised a Branch Walk at McLeans Island through the plantations. Some of the hounds were active chasing the rabbits that inhabit that area. They all survived intact but the Bassets had fun chasing them. Some of those who survived the walk then enjoyed a pleasant lunch at Harringtons.
